WSD Student of the Month

   Ms. Rhiley Ehn has been described by her teachers as “one of the best students they have, in any grade.” She “grasps all concepts, accepts tasks readily and seeks out extra opportunities to gain experience.” Dedication to continuous improvement is what sets Rhiley above others, and has earned her recognition as Winter School District’s Student of the Month for April!
   Sometimes to see an illustration of this, you need to look at the small things Rhiley does to succeed. For example, when Rhiley is done with an assignment she does not sit and watch Netflix or roam around the room distracting others. She pulls out a book and reads. This small act speaks volumes about Rhiley’s approach to education and her dedication to the future.
   Dr. Ray also speaks very highly of Rhiley, having her participate in science internship for the past two years. She also has had Rhiley working directly with her scientific research, taking on the monumental task of entering data. Rhiley goes above and beyond and asks good questions when she doesn’t understand. Beyond the classroom Rhiley also is very active in various clubs and athletics. In particular she has begun refereeing middle school basketball games this year, and anyone can tell you what a valuable but thankless job that may be. Again, evidence that Rhiley is not just another good student but a positive, valuable young adult.
   Congratulations to Rhiley Ehn on being named Winter School District’s Student of the Month!
